During the half-term I'm going on holiday to visit my cousin who emigrated about a year ago. Just thought I'd let you know so no-one wondered where I went.

[BigSister]

[Lance]

[Legend]

End of october is half-term over here so he might just be telling us in advance lmao.

[jrc]

Yes, I am telling you in advance.

[Kaz]

Cheers, jrc.

When is your half-term holiday then? Here in Scotland the schools finished on Friday for their 2 weeks' autumn holiday.

(Commonly known as the Tattie Holidays, because schoolkids used to earn some extra pocket money by picking potatoes during these 2 weeks .... nowadays they're usually harvested by machine - the potatoes that is, not the schoolkids!!!!!.)

*End of Scottish history lesson!*

[Corkie]

[jrc]

[Corkie]

are dont worry maybe we could post each other saying


boo!

[jrc]

Yeah, lol.

[Corkie]

than i would reply back saying that was complety pointless

[jrc]

Yeah, I bet you would!

[Z]

Oh I'm off at the end of Friday! Then I go back on the Friday two weeks later, just for the day? *weirdness*

Again, I think Scottish holidays are totally disjointed, they're never the same, my older brother gets the holiday already, and my younger brother gets an extra day *he stays off on the friday when I go back*

[Fangz]

Have fun, jrc. I'll miss your brilliant posts!

[Ruth]

[jrc]
